Use when someone asks what the copy on one marketing or acquisition surface should feel like before the lines are written. Produces ranked, grounded copy goals and a `copy-direction.md` record for that surface. `tone-of-voice` owns the cross-surface brand register, `content-design` runs first to decide message and narrative structure, and `ux-writing` owns product UI strings. Product or growth strategy belongs to product strategy; framing the acquisition bet belongs to `frame-intent`…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Skill: copy-direction

Produces a **per-surface copy direction doc** — a small set of named, ranked copy goals grounded in stable referents, plus arbitration rules for that surface. The doc is the durable artifact: every copy choice for this surface points back to a goal and its referent rather than relitigating voice on each draft. This skill is the copy twin of `creative-direction`: same interrogation rhythm applied to what a specific surface *says* rather than how it *looks*.

## Output rendering

<!-- agentbundle:output-rendering:start -->
Lead with the useful outcome or next action. Use warm, non-blaming language and everyday words. Define an unfamiliar term in a few plain words before naming it; keep proper names and exact technical terms intact.
During tool work, do not narrate routine calls. Send an update only for safety, a blocker, a needed decision, a material scope change, a long wait, or an active host requirement.
When requesting input, ask only for what is needed now. Ask dependent questions one at a time; otherwise group related questions. Offer no more than three clear choices when choices help.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add eugenelim/agent-ready-repo/copy-direction@sha256:dfccbacde3c5d912

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260904.b747100, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
